Version 1.6.0 of Mandos is released.  This is mostly a major release,
except for a very useful new client feature.  NEWS file excerpt:

Version 1.6.0 (2012-06-18)
* Server
** Takes new --foreground option
** Init script supports new "status" action.
* Client
** Now uses all interfaces by default; the --interface option can
   still be used to restrict it, and the argument to --interface (as
   well as the $DEVICE environment variable for the network hooks) is
   now a comma-separated list of interfaces to use.

This change is backward-compatible except that the default client
behavior now takes up *all* usable interfaces instead of just the first
usable interface it happens to find.  This should not affect normal
usage.

Debian package changes:
* debian/copyright (Copyright): Join the two lines to a single line.
* debian/mandos-client.README.Debian: Update to refer to the new
  location of the example network hooks, and the new feature of using
  all network interfaces.
* debian/mandos-client.docs (network-hooks.d): Removed.
* debian/mandos-client.examples (network-hooks.d): New.
* debian/rules (binary-common): Added "dh_installexamples".
  (binary-common/dh_fixperms): Exclude new location of
  "network-hooks.d".

The Debian package for unstable can be found on mentors.debian.net:
